All Goldens that come into our care are spayed/neutered, vaccines updated, microchipped and all other medical needs are taken care of, often including extensive surgery.

Since inception in 1990, 1559 Goldens have come into our program, 221 in 2010 alone. All donations go directly to caring for all of these magnificant dogs that come into our care.

A decade ago, Island Wildlife was merely a tiny woodland cottage. There were no seal pools or eagle flights. Water that trickled from a substandard well now flows from a direct line from St. Mary Lake. 13 years ago our stainless steel, diet preparation kitchen was a funky, hand made garage. There were no weekly deliveries of frozen herring; and if there were, there was no walk in freezer in which to store them. 13 years ago our phone didn’t ring because of an orphaned seal pup on the beach; the pup was just left to die. Island Wildlife Natural Care Centre stands alone in its uniqueness. We are unique in that we maintain no display animals, we are a hospital, not a zoo or aquarium. We are unique in our approach to medicine in that we have integrated conventional veterinary therapies with the best of the naturopathic school of medicine. And we are unique in that we are a teaching facility. The bulk of our animal care staff are interns, fellowships and young veterinarians.

Habitat Acquisition Trust (HAT) works in partnership with governments, non-profits, communities, schools and landowners to enhance habitat protection on public and private land - making everyone part of the solution! Established in 1996, HAT's mandate is to protect natural environments on southern Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands, a spectacular part of Canada in the south-west corner of British Columbia. This is a special part of Canada where the warm, mild climate is home to species and habitats that cannot be found elsewhere in Canada - and some of these ecosystems and species are the most endangered in the country. A disproportionate number of BC's threatened and endangered species occur in the region, which also has a disproportionate amount of BC's private lands. HAT works to protect land permanently through: * land acquisition through purchase or donation; * conservation covenants; * education & stewardship. Thank you for your support!
